I was in Calgary this week and my flight back was supposed to arrive at 10:00pm Thursday night, but it was delayed (slightly) and I didn't get home until 6:15 on Friday morning.
Needless to say I didn't go to work that day - I did some work from home but also found time to go to the Happy place with Carolyn and Tier for about an hour. We made a cute new friend.... See below.

| We keep seeing this bird out there. I'm pretty sure it's a juvenile male Rose-breasted Grosbeak but I'm not sure. I hope he stays all year, but I think that would be pretty unusual. The furthest point in their summer range is supposed to be Oklahoma. |
 |
| Snowy Egret - I love the yellow-feet. |
 |
| A study in male Anhinga landing... |
 |
| Tier treed this young opossum and I had to take f ew pictures. Don't the eyeballs look unreal - like they are black marbles glued into his head. |
 |
| Hide and seek... |
 |
| Orchard Oriole - Another migratory here that seems to be hanging out for a long time. |
 |
| Eastern Kingbird |
 |
| Someday I'm going to to get really good pictures of the Common Yellow-throat. Until then, I'll have to settle for what I can get. |
 |
| A little better, but still not great. |
 |
| Not a great bird (Gray Catbird) or a great picture (compositionally) |
 |
| I just like it because I really got the focus right so the resolution is pretty cool... |
 |
| Even at this level of zoom... |
